Mary GazzeMay 30, 2010This airport is a gem for international travellers. Get off plane, only people in line at customs are people on your plane! I once waited in line with a whole 10 people
The reason I started flying Southwest from Newark to Midway is the flights were empty. People have caught on. Jet Blue to O'hare here I come
Illinois bar and grill between terminal A and B has the best chicken fingers
Matt MyersOctober 15, 2018Don’t come here hungry. Nowhere good to eat, or sit for that matter. And make sure your stuff is charged!
Dilara SultanSeptember 26, 2010If you don't have friends/associates picking you up, GET A LIMO! The expanse is not terribly greater than a taxi, but you can strech those legs after your plane ride.
the phone room between security and C concourse is the best place to get some work down while between flights... power and usually quiet.
Food? Stop at Gold Coast Hot Dogs and get the char Jumbo...good stuff
The mexican style omelet at Illinois Bar & Grill is delicious.
Jonathan ChizickJuly 10, 2013There are a ton of convenient electrical outlets by the... sorry, not going to give away this secret ;)
Layover challenge: eat as many chocolate shakes as you can...GO!
Linnea CovingtonDecember 21, 2010If I am going to be stuck in an airport, at least they have decent pubs and grub here! Just watch the signs when making your way out.
They took out the Potbelly and now there’s no good spots for a bite here.
Chris VanderReydenJune 23Still waiting to board the plane for LA. Originally a 720 boarding is now almost 10pm. 😭
Anita at One Shot BoardsJune 12, 2012need to arrive 2 hr early. security lines have gotten worse. And ladies, don't wear heels, your killing your feet. Put the heels on when you arrive!
Explore (concourse B) past pottbelly's...lots more options.
Jim HayesDecember 2, 2012I may never fly into and out of another Chicago airport. SW counter staff is great!
Please fed-ex all children and elderly to your final destination.
The cell phone lot is a great place to wait if you arrive early for pickup or if a flight is late...
Walk left stand on the right. Please be courteous to the others on the ramps!
Do NOT check a bag when flying in here. Bags take years to get to the belt.
Definitely get a fast pass so you can cut the security line. It's still not as bad as LAX.
Akanksha SinhaAugust 29, 2012This airport is so much better than O'Hare . Faster, better and thyehae a Ben n Jerry's! :)
If flying Southwest on any B gate before the end of the concourse, get there early because there is horribly inadequate seating.
Manny's in concourse A has the best Rueben Sandwich. Get it!
Make sure to swing by Reilly's Daughter in the back right of food court for a good pint of Guinness. Ask for Boz and then ask him about all the famous people he knows like Jenny McCarthy.
PeterApril 11, 2013not sure the bartenders there are that knowledgeable when it comes to making drinks
If you are using the moving walk way please continue to walk.
Talkgregate AppSeptember 25, 2012Beware of the length of security lines.but sooo much better than Ohare
Jenni watkinsMarch 23, 2011For Starbucks, go to Potbelly Sandwich works in food court. They serve starbucks coffe and make most of their drinks.
Be sure to have your boarding pass & ID to pass thru security. It's required.
